things i don't want to forget

-how you say usic instead of music

-that you came upstairs to tell me that "daddy's playing with the vacuum cleaner."

-that you know all the words to "I got dirt on my head" and are currently obsessed with Groundhog Day

-when we were all in the bathtub, you said we were making a "naked train!"

-that you tell me you are going to poop on your toilet, but instead you take a huge dump on the floor

-you love to have a "tato party" (god, how you love french fries)

-how constantly inform me of everything that is going on - "that's a big truck." "he's wearing pants" "I'm riding the the car."

-that you know all the words - and will sing - "Everybody Sing the Blues" and "Mama Tried"

I am sure there is more, but you want to play trains.

Don't you lovelovelove the constant narrative of life? "A guy in the car. What's that? Fire truck wahwahwahwahwah. The moon in the sky. I hear a plane!"

Hee, I would LOVE to hear Jack say all the lyrics to "Mama Tried." I sing that song to myself a lot, especially when I totally goof manners, which is pretty much always, despite my mother's patient efforts and good example: Mama tried to teach me better, but her pleading I denied. That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried.
